These anonimis get pretty snarky come late afternoon. I am here, I am posting now. First, I had to put up this pretty cool weather widget ---->
Not exactly what I wanted, but close!
Also, there is the matter of these three children, who continually require food and such.
I think I am starting to get excited about moving. Which sounds terrible and disloyal and so on. But I'm not excited about leaving YOU... I'm excited about the adventure. Which is as it should be. And I'm excited about a new city, and a new Walmart, and a new library... and I am VERY nervous. I'm afraid of being lonely, or homesick. I'm afraid of being scared to drive in the snow, I am also excited about the snow. And, I am talking like a nut.
Cest la vie.
Tonight is the Radiant/Tred Christmas party. Oh heck... I'm supposed to make a snack. I will leave you now.

You're not a nut..
ReplyDeletecompletely normal feelings.
I'm glad you are getting excited!
I think with the new friends you'll make at the church, it won't be toooo lonely. yet it will at times. I remember that.
twas the week before moving
ReplyDeleteand all through the house
every creature was stirring
except for the mouse
the presents were placed
under the Christmas tree with care
by the loving mother
who bought for everyone there
the moving boxes were stacked
only three boxes high
to be sure that the little ones
wouldn't accidentally lose an eye
the children were excited
but didn't know why
they could feel it from mom
those impressions don't lie
an adventure is coming
the Holy Spirit is leading it
so we all can be certain
we'll hear many pleasing bits
of the blessings that Jesus
will perform through the Clarks
when they travel in obedience
and live north of the Ozarks
we'll miss them a bunch
while they're gone in the snow
but our hearts and prayers will go with them
that much we know
***o.k. it's a little disjointed, but i had to do something about that awful thing i read from yesterday....bats killing stockings and such****outrage!
Good poem. That third stanza got a chuckle out of me.
ReplyDeletemoooooooooooooving
2 days until the good people of Texas are graced with our visit.
ReplyDeletegreat, Clammy!!
ReplyDeleteya, the 3rd one made me smile.. reminded me of our move a few months ago, being sure things weren't stacked too high!
the mouse's belly was full of some yummy eggnog & quite contentedly fell asleep amidst the noise of the Clarks
the Christmas Crouse Mouse
ReplyDeleteMade Yummies Galore
to send with her husband
to his work... sweets Galore!
he loved all his work mates
but he had no gifties....
to give to those friends
(who're all in their fifties)
so he mentioned forlornly
no presents had he
to give to the folk at the office
hee hee
so i felt sad pity on this he man of mine
so i purchased some sugar, and
bought us some twine
some rolos and pretzels,
some nuts and some sacks
those folks wont go hungry
those folks won't miss snacks
so he won't feel measly
when he walks in tomorrow
he'll have gifts for all
to erase all their sorrow!
the gift bags all wrapped, with ribbon and bow
have yummies inside
and scripture to go
on the gift card attached
where he signs his fine name
merry christmas to all
and to all a good game
come donner and dancer
and prancer and vixen
i'm finished with cookin'
i'm finished with fixin'
to the top of the stairs
to the top of the house
goes this sweet Christmas mouse
and her husband, Von Crouse!!!
touche mamapc
